I would say 5 is fine. I also own a 40 gallon breeder. Going to start with 3 females...Then obtain another female and a male.

1.1 Sulcuta Tortoises(Young...But when I get out of colledge I will take them from my parents and breed them.)
1.0 Brussels Griffon (It's a Dog

I am a young herper, but I'm obsessed with them. Learning everything I can.
I plan on going to colledge for a vet. masters. Plan on opening a quality vet. office that specializes in exotic & Reptiles. Planning for a large herp room in my own home.

I have 4 in a 40 breeder, 1 male and 3 females and would not add another. At one point i did have 5 and they seemed crowded. 10 gallons per gecko is a good general rule.
